It seems to me that the size of the user community would be critical here. Below an unknown threshold it would be unlikely that you would get helpful feedback on anything your GP couldn't advise on; also the "community" would be vulnerable to cranks. Above that threshold the cranks would be drowned out to a useful extent and the probability of relevant experience being out there would move closer to 1. Quantity/quality. I wonder how many they have so far.

Is this the right thread for me to complain about shoddy part-of-the-problem doctors? I had an annoying but conventional flu-like illness last week (fever, chills, ache, etc.) and on about day 5, as it was abating a bit, went to a doctor mostly to check that the resulting nasty cough wasn't anything worse. They confirmed that indeed it wasn't strep and my lungs sounded fine. The surprising part was then handing me prescriptions for Tamiflu and an antibiotic. As best I can tell, Tamiflu is barely thought to be good for anything, and certainly not on day 5 of an illness. The antibiotic also seemed to be "just in case", which is about the worst reason for an antibiotic. I was also surprised that they defaulted to Augmentin as a first line.

At any rate, I'm not taking them and seem to be doing fine anyway, but I'm still kind of shocked that I was given those without even asking.

This is only vaguely related to the OP, but it does involve health. I knocked my neck out of alignment talking on the phone, and now I have to wear a neck brace and take muscle relaxants for the next week, and then do some physical therapy. I feel like this is possibly even more pathetic than the last time I injured my neck by sleeping. What makes it sad is both neck injuries have completely different causes (one was a small part of my vertebrate getting knocked out of alignment, and this involves an injury of my trapezius muscles triggering neck problems.)
